[technical field]
The present invention relates to a kind of ink composite, particularly a kind of ink composite for Electrowetting display.
[background technology]
The principle of Electrowetting display (Electrowetting Display) is to utilize wetting (Electrowetting) phenomenon of electricity or electrochemical kapillary (Electrocapillary) phenomenon.When fluid is subject to electric field action and changes the surface free energy (Free Surface Energy) of fluid, the distribution area of fluid is changed.
In general the composition that the opaque ink that, electric wet-type display uses is generally allocated by dyestuff (dye).The demand of applying out of doors due to indicating meter improves, and the opaque ink that electric wet-type display uses must have the feature such as low voltage drive and high-weatherability.But, because photostabilization and the thermotolerance of dyestuff are not good, be not enough to reach the specification as outdoor indicating meter, therefore limit the development of electric wet-type display.
Industry proposes to replace dye type printing ink composition with the opaque ink with pigment.For making electric wet-type display reach low voltage drive, the pigment particle size using in composition must reach nanoscale.But in the time that pigment particles reaches nanoscale, due to surface-area and surface energy increase, according to the second law of thermodynamics, pigment particles must tend to assemble.The existing practice is to add more dispersion agent to stablize ink composite, but the consumption of dispersion agent improves the viscosity rise that has but caused whole ink composite, has reduced the responsiveness of electric wet-type display.
Based on above-mentioned, industry needs a kind of novel opaque ink composition, solves the problem that existing electric wet-type display runs into.
